Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and AIQ have unveiled ENERGYai, a custom-built agentic AI solution for the energy industry.
The announcement was made at the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference.
ADNOC said the agentic solution will perceive, think, learn and take action to create value and improve sustainability across its operations.
Developed in partnership with AIQ, G42 and Microsoft, ENERGYai will integrate technologies such as the Open Subsurface Data Universe frameworks and OpenAI models.
The AI solution is designed to bring together LLM technology with advanced ‘agentic’ AI – specialised AI agents trained for specific tasks across ADNOC’s value chain.
The introduction of these agents is expected to enhance “autonomy and precision” in essential operations, ranging from seismic analysis to enhancing energy efficiency and real-time process oversight.
ENERGYai, which is trained on ADNOC’s 80 years of data, is due to commence real-world data testing by the end of 2024 across various domains.
Projections indicate that ENERGYai could hasten the construction of intricate geological models by up to 75%.
These models are crucial for the planning and development of extensive CO₂ storage solutions, utilising vast and diverse datasets.
ADNOC managing director and group CEO Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber said: “ENERGYai marks a major milestone in ADNOC’s journey to be the world’s most AI-enabled energy company and a key enabler of the global energy transformation.
“It will be a powerhouse for value creation and sustainable energy production and will leverage petabytes of data to better empower our people and unlock innovative solutions across our value chain.
“As AI accelerates the pace of progress and transforms industries, ENERGYai will help future-proof ADNOC, reinforce our position at the forefront of AI deployment and ensure we continue to provide secure and sustainable energy to the world.”
ADNOC deployed AIQ’s Advanced Reservoir 360 (AR360) solution across more than 30 reservoirs in its upstream operations last month.
Developed by AIQ in collaboration with SLB under ADNOC’s ENERGYai initiative, this solution leverages AI and machine learning technologies.
